I love helping people, I love learning, and I love sports, what better way is there? I considered teaching for a year and a half, but it just wasn't what I was looking for. Don't worry, it scares the pants off me, but I want to do it.
Question: Why did I want to graduate HS? Why would I want to go to college? Why do I coach softball everyday? Why do I play softball that takes over my life for six months a year? Why do I umpire? Why does anyone do anything they do? Because they love it.
